What could I say but (other than dude, I&#39;m a Native Cascadian, I don&#39;t have a &quot;country&quot;) &quot;well Bill, if you don&#39;t like it here you&#39;re certainly welcome to leave!&quot;Ten Bearshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06594307610015584119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3856837.post-62310592268838974152013-02-01T06:51:05.550-05:002013-02-01T06:51:05.550-05:00Yup, Republicans don&#39;t care about policy - it&...Yup, Republicans don&#39;t care about policy - it&#39;s ALL about politics.<br /><br />And, uhm...<br />Hagel&#39;s up for SoD, NOT SoS!<br />So, a lot of questions were (no surprise) really stupid.<br /><br />It&#39;s President Obama who&#39;ll be setting policy. <br />John Kerry will be negotiating with other countries, putting Obama&#39;s international policies in place, and representing America.<br />And SoD&#39;s job, is to oversee our military, deal with Congress, the military contractors, the budget, adjoining agencies and departments, and making sure our military is ready if, or when, it&#39;s needed.<br /><br />Imo - McCain disgraced himself. He looked like he&#39;s fully embraced his role as an angry old foof. He thought he was playing a DA on a C-SPAN detective series yesterday.<br /><br />Now, I&#39;m not the greatest Hagel fan in the world, but I trust his knowledge, judgement, and abilities a hell of a lot more than those of Johnny McCain, &quot;America&#39;s Shittiest Fighter Pilot.&quot;<br />There were many reasons &quot;The Surge&quot; wasn&#39;t the disaster it could have been. Hectoring Hagel over whether he was right about it, by one of the most war-loving Senators, and supporters of Bush&#39;s Follies, foreign and domestic, was grandstanding of the best and worst.<br /><br />You lost, Senator McCain. <br />Big-time!!!<br />And worse, you inflicted Sarah Palin on us. And I don&#39;t think we&#39;re done with that grifting Klondike Klown. <br /><br />She, your incompetence, your anger, and your loss to President Obama, are the legacy you&#39;ll leave behind.<br /><br />In other news, Ed Koch, former Mayor of NY City, has died, at age 88.<br /><br />Love him or hate him, that guy LOOOOOVED NY!<br />He was funny, goofy, stubborm, witty, obnoxious, smart, and a whole gamut of other things - often in the same day. Hell, often in the same HOUR!<br /><br />R.I.P. Mayor Ed Koch.<br />You&#39;ll be missed.Victorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06609452382111686086noreply@blogger.com
